Glass top stove little particles, question?

Question

How to you clean the smooth glass top stove?

Sometimes after I remove a pot or pan from the heating element (circle), there is like burnt on material on the glass. I do not want to take a knife or something sharp to remove it.
I do wax the whole top once a week, but yet still rough spots around heating element.

I have let it soak with glass cleaner and scrubbed, but there is still little bumps on the glass.

Any suggestions?

Um, yeah Sany, there is a wax to keep it shiny and looking new.
There is actually a special wax for glass top stoves,
duh!

Answer 1

The problem could lie with your pots and pans not the stovetop so much best suggestion to clean this stovetop next time is to use a little Baking soda mixed with a little water to form a soft paste then rub lightly as glass will scratch and become pitted, baking soda is more gentle and will not scratch glass also instead of using water to make this into a soft paste just add a little White Vinegar to the baking soda and scrub with a non scratching sponge Vinegar will clean and shine and the baking soda will also rub out little imperfections in glass and will someetimes rub out some scratches if rubbed gently

The burnt on material could be boilovers that you did not know about the baking soda and vinegar should remove that for you without harming the cooktop and without you having to scrape or scrub hard you should even leave this mixture on your stovetop for about twenty minutes then rinse with a soft cloth and hot water


Or use this method of cleaning your stovetop Make all-purpose cleaners

For fast cleanups around the kitchen, keep two recycled spray bottles filled with these vinegar-based solutions:
For glass, stainless steel, and plastic laminate surfaces, fill your spray bottle with 2 parts water, 1 part distilled white vinegar, and a couple of drops of dishwashing liquid.




Good Luck !

Glass cook tops are attractive components in a modern kitchen and are easier to keep clean than the more usual stoves with visible burners. However, this type of induction stove requires special handling. With a gentle touch and some simple materials and techniques, a glass stove top will remain beautiful and functional for many years. Prevention 1. "Gentle" is the most important word when cleaning a glass stove top. Using hard abrasives or scouring pads will scratch the smooth surface, resulting in damage that cannot be repaired. Prevention is the first step in keeping a smooth-topped stove clean. Avoid boil-over by using a pot or pan large enough for its contents. Reduce the temperature to a level sufficient to keep the contents cooking. Before using a pan on the cook top, remove any clinging particles of sugar, salt, or other gritty material from the cooking utensil with a damp paper towel to avoid scratching the cooking surface. General Cleaning 2. Using plain water and paper towels is also the preferred method for cleaning these cook tops. Wiping up spills immediately makes cleaning easier. Allow the cooking surface to cool to a comfortable level to avoid burns. Periodic use of special cleaners sold by the stove manufacturer is advisable. Generally, the cleaner is applied with a clean paper towel dampened with water and then wiped off with another damp paper towel. Consult the owner's manual for specific care instructions. These cleaners also work well for removing dark marks left behind after using aluminum and copper pots and pans. An occasional sprinkling of baking soda or non-abrasive cleaner like Barkeeper's Friend will remove minor baked-on food stains. Be sure to thoroughly rinse off any cleaner residue and dry with a clean paper towel before using the cook top. Special Cleaning 3. A small amount of dish-washing liquid about the size of a coin and a plastic non-scratching pad can be used to remove stray particles of burned-on food. Dilute the dish-washing liquid with water to form a mild bubble solution, then apply to the spot with the scrubber. Always be sure to rinse away all traces of the liquid detergent and dry with a soft clean paper towel. For more drastic cleaning after a pot boils over and deposits sugar syrup on the cook top, for example, using the manufacturer's special cleaner and a plastic scrubber will remove most of the mess. Use the edge of a plastic knife or stiff plastic spatula to remove most of the cooked-on spot. If food is burned on, a razor blade may be used to very gently scrape the spot loose, although many stove makers discourage this, preferring the use of a special cleaner. When the surface is clean, wipe it well with a clean and damp paper towel.

I've used baking soda and a nylon scrub pad on mine for years. Soft Scrub works, too and so does Dawn Power Dissolver for really burnt areas. Refrain from the temptation to use a blade or edge of any sort because it will leave a scratch that will attract more gunk. Keep up the conditioner like you have been--it keeps stuff from pitting the surface.

Answer 4

There is a product made especially for glass-top stoves. It works great! They even have scrubbers made for these type of stoves too. Follow directions on products, and your stove-top will look good as new

Answer 5

I use Soft Scrub and a sponge with a scrubby side (one that's safe for teflon pans)....I keep working on the spot until it is gone. Sometimes it may take awhile, but it does come up eventually.

Answer 6
